New art installations near West Sussex village: spectacular works at Wakehurst are inspired by threatened habitats

New thought-provoking art installations have appeared at Wakehurst in Ardingly.

Part of the wild botanic garden, which is home to the Millennium Seed Bank, has been transformed into ‘Meadowland’.

The attraction is open to the public from Friday, June 14, to Tuesday, September 10. Visit www.kew.org/wakehurst/whats-on/meadowland to find out more and book tickets.

A Wakehurst spokesperson said: “This summer, Wakehurst transforms into Meadowland! Visitors are invited to dive deep into the grasses and wildflowers of breathtaking meadows and discover spectacular thought-provoking art installations inspired by the beautiful and powerful yet threatened habitats. From seeing life through a bee’s eyes, to listening to voices from nature, or simply bathing in the evocative sounds of waving grasses and humming insects, Meadowland is the perfect place to soak up the best of the summer, discover something new, and reconnect with nature.”

Mid Sussex Times photographer Steve Robards visited Wakehurst this week to capture these beautiful images.
